The debut will take place during the Finali Mondiali 2014, which will be held outside of Europe for the first time in its history this year, 4WheelsNews reports. According to the site, Ferrari plans to show the especially exclusive model to select customers behind closed doors.

A Ferrari representative was not available at the time of writing to comment on the rumor, but it jibes with previous reports that said the car would debut in December.

Official information about the LaFerrari XX is still scarce, but it is expected to make 1,050 hp, which would make it more powerful than the street legal LaFerrari along with the track-only McLaren P1 GTR that debuted last August at Pebble Beach.

The LaFerrari is already a stripper as cars that start at $1.4 million go with seats fixed to the carbon fiber tub and an adjustable pedal box to account for drivers of varying stature. Despite that, the Ferrari will almost certainly find other items to do away with to make the car even lighter. It is expected to carry a price of roughly $3.1 million with about 30 copies available on Maranello’s order book.

The Ford Shelby GT350 has taken the internet by storm.

The LaFerrari XX is shaping up to be Ferrari’s most extreme model yet.

A new prototype of the LaFerrari XX has been spied testing, sporting some radical styling even for the Italian automaker’s standards. The LaFerrari XX is expected to sport around 1,050 hp and will be a track-only monster. Compared to the last time we spotted the LaFerrari XX testing, it has now received a revised front air dam and two fixed rear-wing sections attached to the rear flanks. Additionally, a massive rear spoiler extends from the lip of the rear deck, for one of the more creative designs we’ve ever seen on an exotic.

Rumor has it that the LaFerrari XX will now be getting a turbocharged V6 engine derived from Formula 1 technology that will be paired to the production LaFerrari hybrid system. Expect more details as we get closer to the LaFerrari XX’s official debut.

The more hardcore LaFerrari XX supercar is rumored to be ready for a debut next month at the company’s World Finals in Abu Dhabi, Top Gear reports. As the most extreme production-based car that the Italian automaker has ever built, the LaFerrari XX will make around 1,050 hp, which is a good 100 hp more than the production variant. But don’t expect forced induction to find its way on the LaFerrari XX as was rumored previously, it is being reported that Ferrari will stick to the hybrid V12 powertrain with additional power coming from the engine itself and not the electric motors.

Considering that the LaFerrari XX will be track only, expect moire aggressive aerodynamics as well as coming straight from the factory with race-spec rubber and race bucket seats inside. And just like its predecessor, the Enzo-based FXX, the LaFerrari XX and its owners will get plenty of track time at Ferrari’s Corse Clienti program, which features eight races around the world. According to an inside source, Ferrari doesn’t want the LaFerrari XX falling into the hands of collectors, but rather wants to see them driven.

Word on the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 was heavily shared this past week, while a survey showing that exotic cars are less attractive to women than we’d think was also popular on social media. Rumors on the Ferrari LaFerrari XX running a 6:35 on the Nurburgring also got automotive enthusiasts excited.

Through the magic of social media, some stories just have a life of their own. We’ve compiled a list of this week’s most shared stories through Facebook, Twitter and Google+.

The Internet took a strong liking to our comparison of the Audi R8 and Porsche 911 while the first spy photos of the Ferrari LaFerrari XX spread like wildfire through social media. Lastly, the debut of the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible at the New York Auto Show was also a huge favorite.

If you live in the northeast, you’ve just suffered through one of the worst winters in a very long time. The spring hasn’t been much better, either, but with most of the snow now melted, we couldn’t wait to get out to our local road course and officially declare winter closed and track season open.

The more hardcore, track-only LaFerrari exotic has made its first appearance.

We recently reported that Ferrari has confirmed development on a track-only LaFerrari XX model, and now we have the photos to prove it. AutoGuide‘s spy photographers recently caught the LaFerrari XX prototype at the Nurburgring, and while it’s not confirmed that it is the LaFerrari XX, the unpainted body panels that reveal the carbon fiber underneath along with its thunderous exhaust note clearly suggest that this is the track-only exotic Ferrari is working on.

According to our spy photographers, the LaFerrari XX made quick work of the Nurburgring and was testing various sets of Pirelli tires throughout the day. Since the car won’t be street legal, Ferrari will be pulling all the stops to make it as formidable as possible on the race track. Expect more aerodynamic tweaks as the Italian automaker prepares the hot model to debut in 2015.

Ferrari is already hard at work on a hardcore, track-only version of its LaFerrari halo car.

The head of the company’s Sporting Activity Department, Antonello Coletta, confirmed that the LaFerrari XX is under development. Coletta also told Drive that the LaFerrari XX will launch sometime early next year.

The LaFerrari XX will follow in the footsteps of the Enzo-based FXX and 599XX track machines that was previously built for the Italian automaker’s most exclusive customers. Specifics to how Ferrari is making the LaFerrari XX more hardcore are kept under wraps, but information will likely emerge in the coming months.
